Pro Patria Finlandia

With Easter upon us, what better time for a review of "Pro Patria Finlandia" by Finland's blaspheming blackened thrash punks? Nobody does it quite like IMPALED NAZARENE, do they?

The Ultimate Destroyer

You knew it would only get bloodier after Chicago's LAIR OF THE MINOTAUR (LOTM) hacked and stabbed with murderous metal rage and old school spirit on 2004's "Carnage".

Sterling Black Icon

I recall applauding Germany's FRAGMENTS OF UNBECOMING in a review of the band's Metal Blade debut (and sophomore release) "Skywards/Chapter II: A Sylphe's Ascension".
